Chapter 44: Don't Say It
Spring has bloomed again, three springs have passed in a blink of an eye, and I vaguely remember that when I first came, the trees in the yard were still saplings, and suddenly they surpassed people, as if they were going to grow to the sky.
The trees in the yard have regrown, and the flowers that had fallen out of existence have bloomed again, and they don't feel abrupt in the yard.
Xu Jing came out of the kitchen with freshly cooked noodles, she rarely entered the kitchen, the noodles were boiled, and shouted at the yard behind her.
"Eat noodles! Ah Lin"
Mother Wang has taught Xu Jing all her life's cooking skills, but she has no consciousness at all, and the dishes she cooks are sparse, but she still has to be tasted every time.
Zhang Lin put away the gun in his hand and pinned it to his waist, Tan Tian helped him put on his coat, and the two went out together.
"Do you want to tell Madame? The news came today, and there was no time without notice."
After three years, he still couldn't change the habit of smoking, so he touched his pocket and then into Tan Tian's pocket, took out the lighter, lit one, and took a deep breath before continuing to move forward.
"Don't talk about it, tomorrow you tell her that I will deal with things, and I won't be able to come back for a while"
"I can't hide it from the fifteenth year of junior high school, and my wife is smart, as soon as I open my mouth, I will reveal my stuffing"
"Then you won't not open your mouth" He bent down and picked a wild flower casually, thinking that it must look good with her new hair today, "She will say when she asks, don't pretend not to know"
"It's... Okay, then when will I go with you, although Mincheng is your home, but I have also lived there, and it is half of my home, I also want to go back and see"
"This news came suddenly, the world has not been peaceful recently, the Japanese are ready to move in the Northeast, everyone is panicking, you stay here to take care of this big family, and let the people of Haicheng live in peace of mind, why is my third master here, others dare not move"
"Recently, the Japanese are really rampant, just those goods from Japan I have checked three batches, two batches have problems, although Mincheng is far from the northeast, you have to be careful, this is not a small half a year I am afraid that I will not be able to come back"
"Come on!" A shout in the distance interrupted the conversation between the two, and Zhang Lin patted him on the back, "If she wants to come, help me give her this letter, she will naturally understand, I will leave tonight, remember what I told you today"
"What do you two say, Wang Ma is not feeling well today, I will take care of the next kitchen, this is yours"
"Thank you, ma'am"
"Madam, what about my share" Dafu walked from behind while holding the cake and gnawing on it, eating a mouthful of oil reflected in the daytime, Xu Jing took a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, "In the kitchen, go and clip it yourself"
Dafu should have left a long time ago, but he was too thick-skinned, and on the day he was leaving, he begged for a long time at the door of Zhang Lin's room, no matter how he kicked it, Zhang Lin pointed a gun at his head, he not only did not go, but rolled into Zhang Lin's room, and went crazy everywhere in his room, almost smashed his bed board, and shocked a person in the house, Zhang Lin couldn't stand his torture and had to agree to live down for a month, and as a result, every month Dafu repeated his old tricks, and dragged on for a month, and everyone thought he was a handyman and let him continue to stay.
"Wang's mother is also old, and she has a panic in the spring weather, her legs and feet have been in severe pain recently, so let the doctor take a look"
"Just decide for yourself" Zhang Lin swallowed a large mouthful of food, too salty, so salty that people couldn't open their mouths and say a word more, he glanced at Tan Tian with his spare eyes, watching him swallow a mouthful of noodles with salt, his brows were about to twist together, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart.
It's been three years, and even people who don't have a sense of taste should have made progress.
"Rose is engaged next month, and we're going to pick out the dress today"
Next month, next month, the third master will be gone for a long time, Tan Tian thought secretly in his heart, he kept coughing when he didn't pay attention to a mouthful of noodles choked in his throat.
"What's going on? Why do you choke like this, it's hard to eat? Saying that, Xu Jing took a big sip of the noodles, her face wrinkled, and she hurriedly ran to drink water.
"Why don't you tell me that this dish and noodles are so salty?"
Zhang Lin shrugged his shoulders, "I don't think so"
"Don't eat it, beware of being speechless tomorrow, Tan Tian, your craftsmanship is good, you do it"
Tan Tiangang wanted to open his mouth to refute, but when he saw the third master's eyes pointing to the kitchen, he had to stand up and obey the order.
He is a soldier, not a subordinate, how can he still work, too, the third master is like a shrinking turtle in front of his wife, how dare he say a word.
Wang's mother arrived one step earlier than him, and was already guarding the pot and cooking, and when she saw him coming, Wang's mother knew it and asked him to help check the dishes.
"How many years have you been here?"
Tan Tian picked off the vegetable leaves one by one and rinsed them in water, it was hot water, and it was still steaming, "Twelve or thirteen years, why do you ask this?"
Wang's mother voice was a little hoarse, "Ask, Mrs. has been here for four years, and the days are really fast, I remember that I was only thirty when I first came, and I can still pick up two loads of vegetables in one breath and go up the mountain without panting, and now my legs will hurt in the beginning of spring."
"Who has immortality, won't I be the same as you in a few decades?"
"Can't speak" Wang Ma didn't bother to pay attention to him, looked at the freshly fried oil dun zi and sighed, "Ah Zhao, that girl likes to eat this the most, every time I have to secretly fry a small bowl for her, at that time she divided half a bowl for you, you kid didn't eat less at that time"
The fleshy face blinking with stars appeared in front of him again, this was the first time he thought of this face, and he couldn't remember it clearly, but he remembered the appearance of her smiling and taking out the oil pier from her hand and stuffing it into him.
It's really fast, and it's been three years as soon as it's gone.
"You can't go" Xu Jing kicked Zhang Lin's leg, and Zhang Lin dodged lightly.
"It's not okay to go with you"
"Don't you wear it? What do you mean to accompany me" Xu Jing took the scarf off the hanger and wrapped it around Zhang Lin's neck, patting him on the shoulder, "Low, out of reach"
There is a fire burning in the house, warmer than outside, when she walked out of the door, Xu Jing's neck shrank, Zhang Lin saw her like this and took her hand into her pocket, his hand was warm in winter, Xu Jing smiled and circled in his big hand.
Zhang Lin has always waited for Xu Jing to arrange the dress, anyway, he has a good figure, even if he wears rags, he looks good.
"This one, this white one looks good" Xu Jing held up the white suit and gestured at him, and nodded with satisfaction, "That's it"
"What about you?"
The owner of the dress shop is an English woman, her facial features are very three-dimensional, and her every move is different from that of an Oriental woman, she ran to the back and took out a red dress, "This is the most suitable for the lady"
Xu Jing has never worn a red dress, she likes light colors, and most of the clothes are mainly light colors, looking at this dazzling red, she turned her head to look at Zhang Lin.
Zhang Lin supported his head with his right hand, and when he saw that he asked himself, he hurriedly sat upright, "Madame looks good in whatever color she wears"
"People with white skin look the best in red, and Mrs. looks good with white skin, why not try it?"
A red dress has become a color on her, just a glance to make people remember, the back is empty and revealing two butterfly bones, she walked with a skirt, the boss hurriedly came to help her tidy up, and couldn't stop admiring.
"Madam is very beautiful, if I marry you, I want to hold it in the palm of my hand!"
"That's not it, of course my woman is good-looking, wrap it up" Zhang Lin helped her tidy up her hair "good-looking"
"Wrap it up and send it here" Zhang Lin took out the card and handed it to the boss, "It's troublesome"
